Resonance

Have you ever been in a really good mood and encountered someone grouchily spewing negativity? It’s amazing how quickly you can shift from a generally contented frame of mind to a critical one – about them! Your reaction shows up as an impulse to be negative about their negativity! But engaging their energy only makes you both feel bad. Allow them their rant without joining in their energy. Your quiet tolerance won’t engage their ego or yours. Meeting them with compassion and understanding increases the likelihood that, instead of you matching their energy…

They’ll match yours.
